CHAPTER-1
STRUCTURE OF MATTER

ANSWERS—
1. When candle burns, wax in candle converts from solid into liquid.
This is a physical change (as it is a change in state of matter and
can be reversed) However, wax near the flame burns and
convert into carbon dioxide. This carbon can't be again
converted into wax , so this is a chemical change.
2. Once all the individual elements are balanced, the total number of
atoms of each element on the reactant and product side are
compared once again. If there are no inequalities, the chemical
equation is said to be balanced.
3. Because they don't have items in equal ratio.
mixture is combination of substances in not equal
ratio.

2. Neon is an element that exists freely in nature, as it is a noble gas.

3. There are seven diatomic elements: hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine,

chlorine, iodine, bromine. These elements can exist in pure form in other
arrangements. For example, oxygen can exist as the triatomic molecule, ozone.

4. There is a simple way to determine the atomicity of any element. It can be

determined as a ratio of molecular mass and atomic mass.

5. There is a simple way to determine the atomicity of any element. It can be

determined as a ratio of molecular mass and atomic mass.

6. Atom: The smallest particle of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction.
